  • "A lovely relaxing week, close to all areas of Anglesey."

    If you want rest and relaxation this is the ideal place. Owners very helpful. We’ve loved our week there.

  • "The property is well equipped and in a superb location with a wonderful view of Snowdonia, this enhances the lovely shared garden along with total peace and quiet to help you relax."

    The hosts are extremely friendly and helpful if you need any assistance or advice. The only minor things I would note are that the temperature of the hot water was scalding and could do with being turned down; also the thermostatic shower control was defective and could not be adjusted to make the shower cooler. My party all enjoy hot showers so it wasn’t really a problem for us. Would definitely return again.

  • "Lovely location."

    Basically a nice property but tired. We found the settee and double bed uncomfortable. The facilities were ok but we did not get the log burner starter kit, nor loo roll. It was a good job we brought some with us.

  • "We loved our stay here, everything was perfect and the host provided swift assistance where required."

    The only problem we encountered was with the central heating. The radiator in the kids room didn’t work. The external combi boiler lost pressure a couple of times meaning there was no heating or hot water momentarily, but this was promptly resolved. Lovely location, we’d definitely recommend and would stay here again without hesitation.

  • "This cottage was a total disappointment."

    It was far from clean. The fittings x fixtures were in very poor condition. The kitchen cupboards were grubby and there was a cracked glass x broken cafetière . Many light bulbs were not working. The fridge had cracked drawers. All in all far from the best. I question how it’s got the rating it has?

  • "Bwthyn Gwyn is a lovely character cottage."

    It’s tastefully decorated and furnished throughout. The kitchen is well equipped with everything needed for self catering. We found the house clean and very comfortable. The log burner was an added bonus,we were warm throughout our stay during January/February. Outside there’s a private patio area over looking a large garden with distant views of the mountains. Although in a rural location it is only a few minutes away from Menai and Llangefni to stock up on provisions or dine out. Some of the most beautiful beaches are close by too. The cottage is an excellent base for discovering the island. The owner is very kind and friendly but not intrusive. We would highly recommend this lovely cottage.

  • "This was our 2nd visit to Bwthyn Gwyn and was just as enjoyable as the last time we visited 2 years ago."

    The cottage is in a fantastic position for exploring Anglesey with easy access to the A55 yet so very quiet and peaceful. It has beautiful views from the picture window across the countryside, a decking area which we did not use but would be great in warmer weather. Inside the cottage was warm and welcoming with the added bonus of a log burner making it very comfortable after being out all day. The kitchen is well equipped if you want to prepare meals, a big bathroom with a bath & shower with plenty of hot water. The double bedroom is lovely and we slept so well. The owners welcomed us on arrival and were available if needed but not intrusive. We would highly recommend this cottage for a holiday on the island and hope to return for a 3rd visit!

  • "Accomodation was very nice, comfortable and lovely quiet location."

    Only thing we noticed is there were parts that were not very clean. Handle of fridge door looked like something had been spilt in it, was brown and sticky. A lot of the cupboard doors had little splashes on and dust in the ridges, as if not wiped down regularly. we brought out a large frying pan than looked like it hadn't been washed properly and just put away, same as some cutlery. We just ended up washing everything before we used it. Everything else was fine, just think a bit more care could have been taken in the kitchen to make sure it was all clean, especially in these covid times.

    No scissors or wooden spoons. We believe there should be larger wine glasses. The double bed had an end at the foot of the bed which is not good for people over six feet tall. Therefore I had to sleep diagonally across the bed which is not good for your partner.
